This custom is a straightforward adaptation of the Baroness in her most recognizable look. I combined two Takara Microlady bodies to build the base (Catwoman and one of the Acroladies) and attached the head and belt from the Valor vs. Venom blue Baroness. Her armor is from the Spy Troops Lady Jaye, which fits the Takara body very well. Her boot cuffs and gear have spot painting to add detail and match the base colors of the figure. Her body suit is actually a very dark gunmetal blue-gray while her boots, leggings, armor and hands are a dark charcoal (almost black). As shown in the picture, the battle armor is removable. This allows her to fit into a variety of environments/situations, or make the switch from Cobra to Iron Grenadier.

The Takara body does not have as much sculptural detail as a Hasbro body, but allows for much more dynamic posing. This works well for a slender figure dressed in a bodysuit, like the Baroness, and gives her a grace and versatility that is lacking in the traditional body style.

The pictures show the Baroness leading a Python Stike Team as it storms a hi-tech research facility. Judging from the second picture, the mission does not go as planned.
